To Be...Nearing Home

I recently read Billy Graham's book, Nearing Home. In this book Graham said, "I'm nearing home with triumphant expectations." Can you say that today in regards to heaven?
He also said, "Growing old has been the biggest surprise of my life, the greatest triumph is yet to come; experiencing victory over death that will usher me into the eternal presence of my Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ."

Three other quotes in the book worth contemplating were:
“Don’t resent growing old. Many are denied the privilege.” Unknown
Bumper Sticker..”Enjoy life…it has an expiration date.”
“The measure of a life is not in its duration, but in it’s donation.” Corrie Ten Boom
So let's enter today with jubilation! God is with us and He's up to good! While the best is yet to come, there is purpose in today. As we put our heads down tonight may we look back and see part of the day's purpose. May we know there was importance in our prayers, our smiles, our words of good cheer!
